Elliott Gould and Martin Shorthave joinedJohn Mulaney’s comedy pilot loosely based on the comedian’s life. Gould will play the gay neighbor. While I’m excited to have a gay elder on television, this production is from Lorne Michaels of Saturday Night Live, so I don’t have high hopes for how they’ll handle it.

The Mexican Supreme Court has ruled that homophobic language isn’t protected under freedom of expressions.

Masturbation is good for you. It reduces the risk of cancer, helps with erections generally, ups your immunity, and generally helps your mood. Now if you need me, I’ll just be over here in the corner, being healthy.

Native American tribe Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians has passed marriage equality, becoming the third tribe to do so, after the measure failed by a single vote last year.

Kevin Connollyhas joinedFriends With Better Lives, starring opposite James Van Der Beek as a fellow gynecologist. I’ve always had the weirdest crush on Connolly, even though he’s not one of my normal types.

For Colored Boys Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Not Enoughis a finalist for the 25th Annual Lambda Literary Awards.

Disney has unveiled the first image of their Shanghai resort, promising it to be uniquely Disney, but also uniquely Chinese. I’ve been to China but never made it to Shanghai. I always wanted to visit the modern, towering city.

The National Organization for Marriage’s Jennifer Morsewill not be apologizing for exploiting the death of Tyler Clementi to advocate against gay rights. “”The media and activists groups are mischaracterizing my remarks, in which I urged students to befriend gay students, and also urged them all to adhere to the traditional standards of sexual morality. I believe that engaging in uncommitted sex hurts people of both genders and all sexual orientations. I would be happy to meet with Tyler Clementi’s mom and dad to try to move forward and go beyond the highly charged rhetoric that doesn’t help anyone. I don’t think the Clementis know me or what I believe or think or said.”

Hawaii has passed theSteven Tyler Act, making it a crime to photograph celebrities during private or intimate moments. They can agree on this, but not marriage equality?

Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Justin Mikitaare busy planning their wedding, and joke that they have high hopes for the ceremony. They’d love to have Beyonce perform, with Pink doing an aerial act. Michael Urie suggested they have a naked man ice sculpture.

Joe Dallesandro was a model and actor popularized by Andy Warhol. The images of him in this post by Buzzfeed are NSFW, but are hauntingly beautiful.

Let’s be honest for a minute. Studies show that 50% of gay men are barebacking these days. It’s a fact. So what’s going on? Buzzfeed’s Kyle Bellatalks about why he does it despite knowing better, the anxiety it causes him when he goes to get tested, and the fact that he knows he’ll do it again. So why can’t gay men talk about it without finger pointing and name calling? Says Bella: “Why is not an easy question, but it’s the only way we’re going to really feel comfortable talking about our desires. And if, as studies are starting to show, roughly half of all gay men bareback at some point, is it really that reckless? Are men who engage in barebacking sex really self-destructive, uneducated, or unfamiliar with the risk? I don’t think so, but the shame that stands between us and a candid conversation about bareback sex is perhaps as dangerous as the virus itself. I’ll probably bareback again, though I don’t know when or with whom. It is against my better judgment to take this risk, when the virus, even if I don’t have it personally, has invaded my vision of the world. But my desire doesn’t necessarily operate logically.”

I just want to say thank you Kyle, for asking the question honestly. Trying to start a dialog doesn’t’ mean you deserve the comments you got.

Entertainment Weekly has Behind the Candelabra on the cover this week, and from Matt Damon getting his cheeks spray tanned in his garage for the pool scenes to the many, many sex scenes, not much was held back. “The scene where I’m behind him and going at him, we did that in one take. We do it. Cut. There’s a long pause. And then you just hear Steven go, “Well… I have no notes.’”

TV Guide noted that the men on shows on The CW love to bare their abs (why else do people watch?), and asked Stephen Amell if he could identify his network mates just by their abs. How does he do?

We showed you the new domestic Iron Man 3 trailer yesterday, but the new international trailer has a touch of new footage, particularly of Tony Stark. How do we feel about this third film? I’m not sure it looks nearly as fun as the first one.

I’m not entirely sure that I want to try this with my Dyson vacuum, but it’s good to know I have options if I’m trapped in my home office and can’t get to the fire extiguisher in the kitchen.

Do you know there are people out there that actually study rock skipping for a living? I used to love skipping rocks as a kid, but was never any good at it. I suppose I should have insisted that my parents buy me that t-shirt cannon for my 9th birthday.

Epic is another one of those “hidden tiny protectors” movies that seem to come out every ten years or so. This one, like just about everything else these days, does seem a little darker though.

Evidently cats can see the rotating snake illusion, and find it just as confounding as humans. Which begs the question of who can paint my house in this pattern to help protect me from the cat army?
